Physicochemical and Mechanical Behavior of Cellulosic Pine Needle-Based Biocomposites

In the present communication, a study on the preparation and characterization of natural pine needle–reinforced biocomposites using compression molding technique has been reported. Different mechanical and physicochemical properties of the biocomposites have been investigated as a function of fiber loading for assessing their applicability in everyday life. Fiber/matrix interactions between the biocomposites have been analyzed from mechanical...
